Lea Michele ‘Grossed Out’ By ‘Glee’ Sex Scene with Cory Monteith

Rachel Berry and Finn Hudson are finally going all the way and as Gleeks across the globe anxiously await the episode, Lea Michelewasn’t so thrilled while shooting the scene. She did, however, refer to the shoot as hot … but not in that way.

“He was sweating so much,” Lea, 25, told E! of her co-star Cory Monteith, 29. “I was so grossed out!” Why so hot? They shot the scenes in front of a fireplace!

Lea added of the intimate scene with her hunky co-star:

“Oh my god, it was way awkward! … I adore Cory. He’s like my brother and to have to do some of the stuff we did in front of our entire crew … it’s so less sexy than you think. Really, we were in a room with like 20 people around us, sitting by the fireplace.”

Despite how uncomfortable shooting was, Lea told E! that she’s pleased with the results. “I saw some photos and I was like ‘Damn! We look good.’ … As a fan of the show, it’s something I wanted to see for awhile and it’s very interesting how everything plays out.”
